Chapter 839 -839 Ruby Time: The Wedding (Finale 9)_1
“Yeah, indeed some guys have fought over you, a full-on brawl,” Steve Burton replied to Ruby Gregory without hurry, then paused and added another sentence, “However, the person who fought for you was just Steve Burton.”
Ahhh! I really want to bite someone, what should I do!
Unable to surpass Steve Burton, Ruby Gregory bit her teeth tightly and ground them twice, then pounced on Steve Burton with claws bared. Steve Burton laughed, stretched out his hand, and embraced Ruby Gregory fully, soothing her like a fluffed-up kitten, gently stroking her back. Then, he murmured in her ear, slowly and softly, “But even if I’m more popular than you, didn’t you end up winning me over in the end? So, the person who should be most jealous is you, right?”
It does seem to be the case… But it still feels somewhat vexing… Ruby Gregory’s lips were still pouting.
Steve Burton gently pecked Ruby Gregory’s lips, “Still not happy? Let me cheer you up…”
As Steve Burton’s words ended, he took the cell phone from Ruby Gregory’s hands, then gently pulled up the blanket to cover Ruby Gregory’s exposed shoulders. Next, he opened the camera app on the phone, took a selfie with Ruby Gregory, and uploaded it to Twitter, accompanied by a caption, “Only with you do the moments become extraordinary.”
...
Steve Burton had many Twitter followers. Though it was just past eight in the morning, his post quickly received several hundred comments, all filled with crying and heartbroken emojis. Then, nestled in Steve Burton’s arms, Ruby Gregory couldn’t help but laugh.
But before Ruby Gregory’s laughter had subsided, her phone started to ring.
Ruby Gregory climbed out of Steve Burton’s embrace, reached for her phone, and saw that the caller was Madeleine. She couldn’t help but frown slightly. Why was Madeleine calling her so early?
Then Ruby Gregory answered the call without hesitation. She had barely said “Mad-” when, through the phone, she heard Madeleine’s low sobbing. Ruby Gregory’s heart, previously overjoyed and sweetly pampered by Steve Burton, felt as if it had been plunged into cold water, chilling instantly to the core, “Madeleine, what’s wrong? Madeleine?”
Speaking, Ruby Gregory threw off the blankets, jumped out of bed, and clumsily ran to the bathroom. After washing up briefly, she hastily put on some clothes, gestured to Steve Burton that she was leaving, grabbed her car keys without waiting for a response, and hurried out the door.

Ruby Gregory had driven from the West Suburb Villa to the city center. The road was somewhat long, but fortunately, the route from the West Suburb Villa to the city was never particularly congested. So, she arrived at Howard Coleman’s apartment by ten o’clock.
Ruby Gregory had been to Howard Coleman’s apartment before. She didn’t need Madeleine to come downstairs to meet her; she went straight to Howard Coleman’s door and knocked hard.
After several persistent knocks, the door opened from the inside, revealing Madeleine’s face, red and swollen from crying.

“Madeleine, what on earth happened?”
As soon as Madeleine, who had stopped crying, heard Ruby Gregory’s voice filled with concern, her tears fell like broken pearls once more, crashing down heavily.
Ruby Gregory hurried into the house and embraced Madeleine, who buried her head in Ruby Gregory’s shoulder, wailing like a child.
